Mailed it out the 18th. It arrived in California Bell Gardens sort center on the 23rd. Then is says on the 26th it arrived in ALBUQUERQUE, NM. Now today it says arrived at the PO in Denver, CO. WTF? I foresee trouble ahead. was there a possibility a. you are using parcel select and/or media mail b. toner/ink were low when you printed that label ? based on the hop listed i am pretty sure its combination of (a) & (b). apparently with parcel select they first load the item looking at the label and then scan later/manually. so instead of "CA" its going to "CO" i have had my MA tax return go to "HI" for a week and then delivered.. but that was priority express. and don't ask me why i was filing paper return in these days and ages.....

MarleyMoose Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 It was mailed Parcel Select Ground. I use a thermal printer so no chance of lack of ink. Just weird it was in CA already and now is at a PO in CO. Quote

Alpinemaps Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 I'm almost laughing at that. I can only imagine your reaction and the buyers reaction when you see it's left Bell Gardens and now it's on NM. Quote

buidee Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 I hate it when I had mint boxes bought at the lego Store which I carried into the house and accidentally dropped the lego set or had the sets bumped the sides of the door which are now creased, dented, scratched, etc. its not easy being clumsy and being a lego collector. 3 Quote

Alpinemaps Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 It might be time to send in a request on the USPS website and ask them to figure out what's going on with this package. Quote

LMAO...I checked my entire loose pieces bin and couldn't find one! Bought one for $0.27 (new) along with a few other pieces I needed for other sets from bricklink tonight. 1 hour ago, brickcrazyhouse said: hulk clean tiny bricks edit: oh maybe a Mega-Brake piece slipped in I'm guessing I pressed it between my fingers too hard, but seriously, I didn't think I put that much pressure on it. Brittle from age or maybe I do have Hulk hands? LOL Quote
